Guys I do accept that the customer might wish to avoid sending telemetry data to Microsoft on CM and for reasons that are perfectly valid for the customer.
In defence of CM in this respect Microsoft are being really quite transparent as to what is gathered and why. We live in an Information Age where telemetry is gathered by vendors in all sorts of ways. My phone sends telemetry as does my laptop and my car certainly does. I have no idea as to what information is being gathered, when, by whom and for what purpose. This feeds into a much wider conversation that has not taken place : who is the data owner, what are their responsibilities to protect that data or to act upon that telemetry data. I know that my car is UK built by a Japanese company and the telemetry is uploaded to Azure. If the uploaded telemetry indicates that there is a safety related issue with my car is Nissan under an obligation to call me? If they don't and I suffer death or injury is there a legal responsibility? If so, on whom - Nissan for not having informed me or me for not having correctly maintained my car (as has always been the case) - even though I was ignorant of the fact. If there is a legal responsibility then under which jurisdiction?
